This program is a fine product. It compresses pictures into JPEGs and lets you compare. All the major picture formats are supported, and the end JPEG looks almost exactly the same.
However, I cannot help but complain about its cons. First of all it does NOT tell you how much disc space the whole installation will require. For those curious it’s 10.69MB. Second of all, GRRRRR. IT ASSOCIATED ALL MY MAJOR PICTURE FORMATS INTO IMAGE COMPRESSOR PRO WITHOUT TELLING ME!! Of all the image manipulators and editors I’ve found so far, they all gave a notice as to associating which files or not. Now all my files open with this program, and I have to reassociate with XnViewer. That’s a whole letter grade down. Third of all, the splash screen is annoying. I was on Paint.NET finishing on a very very colorful file for experimenting and the splash screen came on. Why is there no way to make it not always on top T.T The thing takes up half of the whole center screen, and I do not appreciate intrusions like that. Another thing is the loading time. Everything takes 3-4 seconds to load (I have 1GB RAM). Although I don’t think it’s that big of a problem, the graphic user interface was also somewhat confusing.
Despite these major flaws, I think I will keep it. It does its job 9and very well, i daresay) and adding these new images to JPEG onto PowerPoint will save a great deal of space.
Soon I will post some results.
Can’t install, when click ‘Finish’ get error: ‘dynamic link library gdiplus.dll could not be found in …\Program Files , WINNT\System32; WINNT\System…………’ I read the readme instructions.
Added 2761 entries in the registry and updated 50!!!???
Changed all the picture icons in internet explorer without asking if I want to assoiciate them with the program.
Didn’t give the option to choose whether I wanted a shortcut on the desktop and just placed it there.
I didn’t yet try the actual program, and I don’t think I will.
